Do YOU remember the 90s??
[Everything bolded is what I remember. Text in italics are my two cents on some of the answers.]
Just because you were born in '97 doesn't mean you're a 90's kid. It's not like you could remember the original Simpsons. I am sorry but three conscious years of the 90's just wont cut it.
You're a 90's kid if you remember watching:
-Doug
-Ren & Stimpy
-Pinky and the Brain
-AAAAAAAH Real Monsters! (Note Ace : haven't watched this one a lot, though.)
-Rockos modern Life
-Animaniacs
-Gargoyles
-You've ever ended a sentence with the word "PSYCHE!"
*You just cant resist finishing this . . . "in west Philadelphia born and raised . . ."
On the playground where I spent most of my days...
You remember:
-Step by Step
-Family Matters
-Dinosaurs
-Boy Meets World
*You remember when it was actually worth getting up early on a Saturday to watch cartoons.
-You remember reading "Goosebumps"
-You still get the urge to say "NOT" after (almost) every sentence . . . not
*When everything was settled by:
-rock paper scissors or
-bubble gum bubble gum in a dish
-ms. mary mack
-When kick ball was a daily activity.
-When we used to obey our parents (Note Ace : Most kids nowadays have no respect for their parents :/)
-You used to listen to the radio all day long just to record your FAVORITE song of ALL time on a tape.
-You remember when Super Nintendos and Sega Genesis became popular. (Note Ace : OH HELL YES I REMEMBER THAT. SO MUCH. THAT WAS GOOD TIMES THEN. ~o~)
-You remember The Original Game Boy.
-You always wanted to send in a tape to America's Funniest Home Videos . . . but never taped anything funny.
*You remember watching:
-The Magic School Bus
-Wishbone
-Reading Rainbow
-Ghostwriter on PBS
*You remember when Yo-Yos were cool.
-You remember those Where's Waldo books. (I even own three.) (Note Ace : not the books actually, but the anime. In France, it was named "Où est Charlie ?")
-You remember eating Warheads and Splashers Gum.
*You remember watching
-the 1st Batman
-Aladdin
-Ninja Turtles
-Ghost Busters (Note Ace : both the cartonn and the movies. :p )
-You remember Ring Pops.
*If you remember when every thing was "da BOMB!"
-You remember boom boxes .vs. cd players.
-Making those little paper fortune things, and then predicting your life with them.
-You played and/or collected "Pogs" (Note Ace : haven't collected a lot of them, though. It wasn't my fave school game.)
-You had at least one Tamagotchi, GigaPet, or Nano and brought it everywhere. (Note Ace : I don't not actually own or have owned a Tamagotchi, but my little sister had a Pocket Pikachu. And hers still works even today ! :D)
-One word. . . . . . . .trolls.
-Windows 95 was the best.
*You watched the original cartoons of
-Rugrats
-Wild Thornberry's
-Power Rangers (Note Ace : Power Rangers was very popular at the time indeed, but I hated it, so I didn't watched it.)
-Rocket Power
-All your school supplies were "Lisa Frank" brand.
-You collected those Beanie Babies.
-Carebears (Note Ace : and even older than that : I loved the Popples ! :D)
-Lambchop's song never ended.
-Silver dollars, which were cool to have.
-Everyone watched the WB.
-If you even know what an original walkman is.
-You know the Macarena by heart. (Note Ace : not by heart, but I remember it well indeed.)
-"Talk to the hand" . . . enough said
-You went to McDonald's to play in the playplace.
-You remember playing on merry go rounds at the playground.
-Before the MySpace frenzy
-. . . Before the Internet & text messaging
-. . . Before Sidekicks & iPods
-. . . Before PlayStation3 or X-BOX 360
-. . . Before Spongebob
-. . . Before Tupac was shot.
-When light up sneakers were cool.
-When you rented VHS tapes, not DVDs.
-When gas was 0.95 a gallon. (Note Ace : Oh hell yes I remember that. I miss the time when Gazole was at 2,9 Francs per litre. Now, when converting from Euro, around 8,5 Francs per litre. :/)
-When we recorded stuff on VCRs.
-You had slap bracelets!
-You actually played outside until it was dark!
---------
Ok. So most of this list's options are U.S. based, so they not always fit with France's culture at the time (for example, cartoon-wise in France, the 90s were the reign of the Club Dorothée and Récré A2, with Captain Tsubasa, Dragon Ball, Saint Seiya, Sailor Moon, Fly (AKA Dragon Quest : Dai's Great Adventure), and lots of other Japanese anime as the pillars of the shows, with a few U.S. and Europe cartoons in tow such as Sonic the Hedgehog, Carlos, Widget...), but a good chunk of things were in common on both countries, so I guess I passed the test there. :D
